Why would an aircraft be unable to fly on the moon ?

उत्तर
Air is necessary for an aircraft to be able to fly. Aircraft cannot fly on moon in the absence of air as the pressure difference between the upper and lower part of the wing is required for producing lift. Moreover, air is also necessary to burn the fuel of the plane.
